Stage 3 represents the third and final stage of bowel movements caused by IBS or Irritable Bowel Syndrome, which is commonly caused by stress. This stage usually occurs after the stressful action has been completed. Stage 3 often consists of sharpened stool, hardened poop often caused by excess constipation. This is probably the most painful yet most relieving part of the 3 Step process.

Stage 2 represents the second of the three set stage of bowel movements caused by IBS or Irritable Bowel Syndrome, which is commonly caused by stress. This usually occurs during the stressful process that initiated the IBS. Stage 2 usually consists of constipation and cramping.

I've had Stage 2 for so long now that my stomach feels like a watermelon.
